SIEMENS PLM software’s Solid Edge ST3 software offers new functionality — enabled by syn chronous technology — that is said to significantly accelerate product design, streamline revi sions, and make importing and reusing third-party CAD data easier. The new release also includes a variety of enhance ments related to simulation, design data management, and more than a thousand customer- driven improvements.
According to the company, syn chronous technology has the capacity to perform a variety of design tasks in a fraction of the time it takes with a traditional approach. In addition to support for part modeling and sheet metal design, synchronous-based models can now be used directly with all assembly applications — such as piping, frames, wiring, and assembly features.
Also delivered is a first-ever part-to-part associativity that lets users establish and alter design intent before, during or after the assembly process.
